    Surely there are some more goods and services that could be added. Boony has offered to run a proper birthday ride this year. Without some revenue the site will not make it to then so add what you can.

    The planning for this ride has already begun, executive team met this morning to discuss some activities.. no dough on go. Donate some prices people, we need this site.

    So is that it? Without being a negative nelly that is way short of what we need to keep the site open for two years (last year and this year)

    I’ve tried to use the “Donate” button however Paypal states OB’s can’t receive payments.

    Happy to support, however I’ve nothing worth donating other than cash.

    Hi Scott,

    We need $3800 ish for the last 2 years (23 x 160) a month going forward. Considering in the past what we raised it isn’t all that bad.

    PAYPAL IS FIXED

    So if we raise $3799 the site still shuts down? Based on the response to the auction it is done and dusted. I did not realise there was such a big debt.

    HI ATM?? :laugh: :laugh:

    You asked for a figure will that is it. I don’t like the money side of it but nothing is free in todays world is it!!

    The debt is bigger than normal because we didn’t run a birthday ride last year. It wasnt run for a lot of reasons, simple fact is it wasn’t. As explained it is $160 / month to run given the data we use. 2 x years is actually more than 3800 I rounded it down.

    Every year the site has been supported by about a small number of people, a much smaller number than use it that is for sure.

    Maybe there are other ways we can do it, maybe we can use the site for different areas besides just single trail?? Forums need to be an open minded area where everyones enjoyment can be shared

    Ideas?

    can the data consumption on the site be managed differently to lower the monthly fee ? There’s no where near the movies submitted that there used to be , does this reduce the monthly charges ?

    Maybe also a small donation to the site could be made each time we put our name down for a ride that’s organised through the site ?? I’m sure most people would donate to do some of the awesome rides on here !!!

    In fact I’ll throw $50 in for LCs up coming South coast ride now , that’s nothing for 3 days drinking ( I mean riding) with that legend !!
